  • the sealing of the delivery channel 3 can be designed as a valve that with is provided with an elastic element that releases gas from the capsule 1 only under an overpressure of a predetermined value compared to the Outside pressure of the capsule.
  • the elastic element 5 can be designed as an elastic ring, as shown in FIG. 2 is shown.
  • This ring is in an exhaust outlet of the sealed discharge channel arranged, in the given training variant by a Connection between parts 6 and 7 of the housing is formed.
  • the ring opens the exhaust gas outlet of the capsule only if the pressure difference between the Inner surface and the outer surface of this ring exceeds the working pressure difference. If it is exceeded, gas is exited through the exhaust gas outlet of the duct 3 ejected.
  • the Elasticity of the elastic ring 5 which is made of rubber, for example, determined by the necessary sinking-in deformation which creates a compression of pressure, the excess pressure over the working pressure difference stretching the Ring causes.
  • the elastic element 5 can be designed as an annular lip, which by a Part of the housing parts is formed, as shown in Fig. 3.
  • This ring lip is the simplest embodiment that does not position one another Installation area requires and the tight sealing of the surfaces of the housing parts 6 and 7 provides.
